About Yourself: Former U.S. Marine Combat photojournalist. I'm now a wedding photographer. I had fish tanks growing up, but never paid much attention to them. This is my first planted tank and I love paying attention to the details, checking water, etc. I have a smaller tank for the kids, with Sponge Bob's house in it, among other decorations. But this tank is daddy's!
